I’ve been an atheist for as long as I can remember, and I first watched this movie a few years ago because I heard of how good it is, and I think this film is one of my top 5 favorite films of all time. I love how mature and down-to-earth this movie is and how it portrays the events of this story. Also the music and animation are both REALLY good. I think what sets this film apart from other religious media is that it’s main focus is telling a story and telling it well, not to convert viewers to a certain religion or belief system. I think this movie is great for everyone, I don’t think you have to be a certain religion to like it.

Ephesians‬ ‭6:10‭-‬18‬ ‭Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; and your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints. The bible is no old book. You have to really let Christ open your eyes; to see the world in shambles. Many people say it's a religion to lock up people in chains, and say it's a rule book.. why? Because people hate hearing the truth, it hurts their flesh, it's hurts their pride, it's exposes on what things have they done..people love this world so much, s*x, money, power, women, supercars.. things of this world. Still trying to find something that can fill that emptiness in your heart. You can't find that in this world.. only in Christ, the bible is no chains, it's a chainbreaker. Breaking your sins into pieces... Repent now, and turn back to the true Lord only.. God bless.

This movie is one of my all time favorites. The depth that they put into the relationship between Moses and Ramases alone is fantastic. I still can't believe how well the animation conveys their emotions toward each other. The clearly still love each other and see each other as brothers in spite of everything that's happened between them. It's incredibly moving.

I love this film so much because you can literally feel it. Everything about it evokes emotion. It’s beautiful.

The fact that this movie is "forgotten" in that it doesn't show up on "best of" lists nor given attention is likely testament to how true and beautiful it is. There's a deliberate agenda to push on us movies that are shallow, cheap entertainment with just enough melodrama thrown in to make them seem touching. Prince of Egypt is truly an animated masterpiece. It's leading fault is the inconsistencies with the actual Old Testament accounts, but as a film unto itself it's astoundingly good. Best synergy of stylistic quality, animated smoothness, scale, drama, music, and voice acting I've ever seen. I'd love to live to see the day when a New Testament story is done to anything approaching POEs quality.

I think it gets passed over because of the biblical themes..some people just dont want to see or hear it, no matter the platform. It is a awesome movie, Ralph Fiennes as ramses is incredible.

Andrew Cook I’m not sure what I’m trying to say either, and as the guy here said I’m just pointing out that Christianity happened much later. I just scroll through all the comments and see hundreds of people referring to the exodus as a Christian story or as a part of Christianity. Im Jewish and to me this movie is fascinating due to the fact that a Christian country produced a movie retelling the story of Hebrews (basically- Jewish people later on) using Hebrew language and mirroring one of the (if not THE) most important elements of Judaism. The first testament says ‘I am The Lord thy God, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt’- the exodus is core in Jewish belief, and it represents the promise God made to the Israelites and the covenant between them. So it’s just really interesting to me that Christians are viewing this as a Christian story. This comment has no intention of being sassy or mean, I just don’t know much about Christianity and it’s interesting to me to see that everyone can relate to this story though basically being a story about the Jewish people.

So did the rabbis and the scholars in accordance with that part of God’s Scripture which they were entrusted to preserve, and to which they were witnesses. So [rabbis and scholars] do not fear people, fear Me; do not barter away My messages for a small price; those who do not judge according to what God has sent down are rejecting [God’s teachings]. It starts before he was born, when the pharaoh was killing the newly born Israelites a year and letting them live whose born in the next year, And Moses peace be upon him was born in the year of killing, And god tells how he inspired his mother to put him in a coffin and put him in water, and the water carried the coffin to the palace of the Pharoah... Then he rejected all breasts of women feeders, so his sister told the guards that she can lead them to someone, only so that god would return Moses peace be upon him to his mother so she would not be in grief.

Slaves were treated with respect with MANY laws implicated to ensure no one would remain a slave their entire lives and that a slave could pay off his debt. Many people actually sold themselves into slavery to pay off debts. Was it perfect? No, and God made it known that they allowed slavery in the first place as a means to make a very common practice at the time more ethical. If you're ever interested, look into the jubilee year.

But you need to ask yourself. Do you want to please everyone or do you want to please God? As far as I know, it’s Biblically written that the world denies God and his word. The world hated Jesus. So talking about God or Jesus will always be an insult to many, maybe the mayority. So you gotta ask yourself: Do I want to preach or teach the true uncensored word of God? Even if people don’t like it Or Do I want to make famously good entertaining movies? Both have their benefits, but the first one has eternal benefits and second gains temporal ones. I tell you, if you want to please God, you won’t please the world. the only reason people get offended would be because of their pride. Truth is, God promises to prosper you, so whatever you do, if it’s his will, it will be great

That's what I love the most about this movie. Both Ramses and Moses seem very real, very human. Is not like Ramses is a cartoony villain with villain-y desires to do evil and just make the life of the hero a mess, and Moses is a perfect, flawless hero. They are both imperfect, they can both seem selfish at times, they both make mistakes... but Moses learns and accepts his own fault and decides to change and be better, Ramses is so buried under expectations and his own pride, that he refuses to see his mistakes and attempt to be better. He doesn't want to hurt Moses nor does he hate him, he actually loves him, and is confused on why he's not on his side anymore. And Moses doesn't see Ramses as a villain, but as someone he loves that needs to be persuaded of what's best. And you can find both types of people in real life. The thing that is the most human is their relationship, you can see how much they love each other, how deeply it pains them to have opposite convictions and how this makes them be enemies, because they continue to love each other as brothers. God the writing and storytelling in this movie is a fucking master piece.

It really made me think of the passage in the Bible, “and so God hardened Ramses’ heart.” I remember that puzzling me as a kid. “If God wants them to get along, why... have them fight?” 😅 Every time I see it, in that silence of him making the decision, I always hear “And so God hardened Ramses’ heart.”

He missed it and I'm so sad he did but look at 5:44. Earlier in the movie there's a scene with Pharaoh Seti talking to Moses and Ramses about legacy and needing to hold up the weight of their ancestors. And in the background there's a statue of Seti dominating the environment. When the scene of 5:44 comes up you see Ramses has built a second statue beneath his father's. HE'S LITERALLY STUCK IN HIS FATHER'S SHADOW!

What I love most about this film is that Moses and Ramses are brothers. And they stay brothers throughout the entire film. Moses gets Ramses into trouble but they're still joking and being bros. When Moses kills the Egyptian, and finds out he's a Hebrew, Ramses doesn't care and still loves him. When Moses comes back to Egypt from Midian, Ramses is so happy and wants to give him a royal welcome. When the plague song happens, Moses laments that he's destroying what was his home and wishes god had chosen another person. Even despite the plagues Ramses wishes he could have the old Moses back. When Ramses son dies, Moses weeps for him. I always hated how in the 10 Commandments Movie, they were so one dimensional. Brothers/siblings are always portrayed at odds in film, but in this movie especially, it highlights how that despite having opposing views, despite ones actions be they good or evil, you can still love someone.

In reality Moses and Ramses might not have known each other that way. Moses was much younger. Also, he was always seen as a lesser since the Hebrews were descriminated against. Moses always knew his origin and never felt like he was Egyptian.

@@zztopz7090 well, I mean, technically the pharaoh of the exodus wasn't Ramses anyway... And I don't think we know Moses's age relative to the Pharaoh. But yeah, the textural narrative we have available doesn't imply that Moses was ever unaware of who he was.

thank you for this video bc this is my favourite movie of all time and literally no one i know understands or knows of this movie

I re-watch this movie every year at Pesach, and it hits me hard each time. A beautiful film, a marvelous adaptation of the Exodus, and still deeply meaningful to me as a Jew. It deserves infinite praise. Thanks for telling more people about it!

I enjoy your commentary so much. Your wording is amazing, You elaborated everything perfectly, And I always find myself finding your videos so intriguing. ❤

Really not sure why, but this video is so comforting and I come back to it whenever i need peace or just need to hear something. certified classic for me

There are also sooo many small details you catch on when you watch it multiple times, like when Moses and his people leave Egypt, there are two egyptian guards who just drop their spears and go in the same direction. And they are there, at the other side of the sea! I love it cause it means no matter who you were in the past, it can be forgiven if you willing to change. The two egyptian guards decided they just want to leave this system and they did. And Hebrews let them, they were all equals. God, i love this movie

There's so. SOOO much visual storytelling in this movie. Like early in the movie when Pharaoh is talking to Ramses and Moses about legacy you see Seti standing in front of a tower with just his face on it. Later in the movie Moses returns and he's talking to Ramses you see Ramses now has a his own tower right underneath Seti's. He's literally in his father's shadow that he can't escape from. Also when Moses and Ramses are debating with each other just before the 10th plague and Ramses proudly proclaims he will kill the Hebrew children he's standing in the same position and pointing as his father's mural on the wall. Except in place of the babies falling to be eaten by gators is Ramses's own son. And the scene closes with Moses saying "you've brought this on yourself."God why is this movie so good!
